I have beaten my own personal demon

Sign in to disble this ad
It sat there on the shelf... mocking me... laughing at me. It has taken more lives than mine... and it will continue to take more lives in the future. It has sat in my room for more than 10 years. That eerie red light used to haunt me in my nightmares.

...But tonight I stand proud. I have beaten my own personal demon.

I, Keith, have beaten the original Super Mario Bros. on the NES.

Thank you and god bless.

i'm just saying, you took 8 minutes worth of fun and extended it over 10 years, that's quite a feat.

Because its tail flaps majestically in the wind! And it has pointy ears.

What kind of Raccoon CAN'T fly? A lame one!
